ZOOMFAB® has identified more effective ways to help business owners and managers understand their business. Using the company budget and estimated work center utilization, ZOOMFAB® monitors and evaluates whether planned values have been achieved, providing clear, unambiguous, and complete information.
ZOOMFABⓇ provides real-time information on machine and work center utilization that is supported by powerful analytics. With operational data available in real-time, ZOOMFABⓇ allows managers to adopt a proactive approach to eliminate problems before they appear and potentially turn into a source of confrontation or crisis. A proactive approach is also the best technique for continuous business improvement, resulting in better organization, better machine utilization, resource savings, and a substantial increase in profits.
With ZOOMFABⓇ, users can see the revenue and profit generated by the machine and work center in real time. Furthermore, ZOOMFABⓇ accurately calculates the hourly rates of operations and compares budgeted and actual results, showing the user well in advance where money is being gained or lost. This unique tool is initially very confrontational, as it often shatters opinions and replaces them with concrete facts, but it is one of ZOOMFAB’s most valued features.
ZOOMFABⓇ has advanced analytical and modeling capabilities that make it a unique strategic tool. The user can evaluate the effects of changing working hours, improving machine utilization, retiring, or introducing new machinery. This information is fundamental when making the right decisions about how to reduce or increase work shifts, schedule investment, or purchase the right equipment.
For business owners, plant and equipment often represent their biggest investment. The ZOOMFABⓇ Asset Module is a comprehensive management tool for storing and maintaining information about company assets, their acquisition, finances, insurance, warranty, and maintenance. Writing notes, attaching documents, files, and images to each record is easy. The Asset Module also monitors warranty periods and supports scheduled maintenance and calibration.
